Irish Rain Lyrics - Alannah - Alannah Myles

I wore out my welcome as the days grew thin 

In this Belfast town 

It's like I've been waitin' 'til my life begins 

Love comes around 

I wander through the streets 

And I see them look away 

The wind hits my bones as they whisper your name 

I go out walking in the cold Irish rain 

Fed up with the landlord comin' down my door 

With his poison gaze 

I've stared out his window and I've walked the floor 

Of this sorry place 

I'll take comfort in the cold 

Until I find my faith again 

Oh God knows I've tried but I just can't fit in 

I go out walking in the cold Irish rain 

What I'd give to see the sun on your face 

To lose myself, in a long embrace 

I'd love to hear the band start to play 

As you turn me around, oh I long for the day 

The last of the ramblin' boys has lost his way 

In these broken times 

They sold off your story and they stole your rage 

With this heart of mine 

They pulled you from your sleep 

And they covered up your name 

Now on Sundays they pray to see you again 

I go out walking in the cold Irish rain 

I go out walking in the cold Irish rain 

I go out walking in the cold Irish rain, in the rain
